"Great for students! I teach at a bilingual school and it’s challenging to keep the students' attention. Apps are the best way to go and this offline app is one of my favorites."
 
"I downloaded several free apps. Some are like games but I’m not sure I’m learning things I can use. This app has lessons that are immediately useful for talking to real people in real situations.”

The Vidalingua Method

Make the most of your travels with lessons such as Museums, Movies and Making Friends.
 
Understanding & Speaking
 
Understanding French is a good start but speaking is critical. Learn French + provides advanced speech recognition to help you master pronunciation. Practice speaking at your own pace until you build the confidence to talk to others.
 
Engaging Experience
 
Some of the lessons in Learn French + teach the basics such as telling Time, using the Subway or Eating Out. Others are unique and amusing such as Limousines, Hot Tubs, Pick-up Lines and Rejections. Interactive exercises keep your attention and improve retention. Meerling the meerkat provides help and encouragement.
